______________ / 1 - cos(2*x) / ------------ \/ 2
sqrt((1 - cos(2*x))/2)
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Let .
The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Apply the power rule: goes to
So, the result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
So, the result is:
The result is:
So, the result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
Now simplify:
